How to speed up an iPhone

Although Apple is constantly updating its iPhones, it can happen that you notice slowdowns due to software functions or the presence of outdated hardware. Before starting to think about buying a new device, however, we recommend that you try some steps for speed up any iPhone model. In this guide, we will obviously see all the most useful ones.

Update the operating system

The first thing to do is obviously to check for software updates and install them if necessary. In this way, in fact, many bugs will be corrected and perhaps the problem concerned will be eliminated. To do this, simply open the app "Settings", continue with "General", then with "Software update" and click "Download and install" should a new update appear.

Disable background app refresh

This is a function that constantly updates the Whatsapp in the background. It is certainly very convenient, but it requires a continuous effort on the part of the system, with consequent slowdowns.

• To open "Settings"
• Continue with "General"
• click "Update background apps"
• Disable the toggle to the right of "Update background apps"

If you want to keep updating certain applications, you will need to activate the aforementioned toggle, the one to the right of the app concerned and deactivate all the others.

Decrease the effects of iOS

- effects visual obviously affect the performance of the iPhone and for this reason, in case they are not necessary, we invite you to reduce them.

• Open the app "Settings"
• click "Accessibility"
• Continue with "Screen Effects"
• Activate the toggle to the right of "Reduce movement"

To further improve performance, you can also disable subsequent settings in order to avoid the automatic playback of videos and the automatic start of effects sent with iMessage.

Turn off Siri Suggestions

Siri also has advanced and sometimes invasive features, therefore, in case they are not very welcome, we recommend operating with the deactivation. Below, two very useful guides that will help you do this.

Free up the storage space

It goes without saying that a lighter iPhone will certainly be faster too. Free up the storage memory it is in fact one of the main operations to be performed to try to improve the performance of the aforementioned smartphone. Before starting to delete everything, however, we advise you to check which elements take up the most memory on your smartphone.

• To open "Settings"
• Continue with "General"
• Click on the item "IPhone space"

At this point, going down, you can analyze, app by app, the space occupied and operate accordingly. A possible solution could also be that of remove applications little used and unnecessarily occupying space.

Turn off transparency

La transparency and blur effects are very popular graphics features on iOS devices, but they have a big impact on performance. It is therefore advisable to deactivate them to try to increase their speed.

• Open the app "Settings"
• click "Accessibility"
• Continue with "Screen and text size"
• Activate the voice "Reduce transparency"

Use static wallpapers

Using an animated wallpaper certainly makes the user experience more dynamic, but unfortunately this choice also affects the performance of the iPhone. For this reason, our advice is to avoid weighing down the iOS screens by inserting animated wallpapers, with motion blur or "Live".

Maintain a charge percentage above 20%

For some it might be really strange, but also the remaining battery level can affect the general performance of the Apple smartphone. Particularly, when this falls below 20%, the operating system may automatically save some unnecessary operations to ensure a certain stability, but slightly slowing down the device.

Restart the smartphone

Like any other piece of technology, regardless of the amount of RAM or the power of the processor, even iPhone could have blockages due to particular background operations invisible to the naked eye. In these cases, the best thing to do is simply restart your smartphone so that all operations start from scratch.

Restore the operating system

In the event that none of the precautions seen previously were to bring visibly effective results, you can operate drastically by eliminating any trace of the content present on the iPhone. Obviously the recommended operation is that of operating system recovery, possibly without making any backups to avoid carrying around any problems. Doing so would mean losing any data, but it could actually bring important benefits.

Avoid cleaning applications

The App Store is full of apps developed for "Clean" iPhone, but which in reality cannot in any way bring advantages. iOS is in fact a limited operating system and does not allow any service to intervene to improve the speed of the device. Installing the aforementioned applications will therefore unnecessarily weigh down the iPhone, risking to make things even worse.
